The Official "Look At The Small Collectors Crap" Thread
Okay, the purpose of this thread is to share your absolute worst condition carts, manuals, boxes, whatever. I don't want to see anything like, "Well, I am planning on upgrading this cart"... That's not the purpose of the thread! Show stuff from your collection that you are perfectly fine with having because it works, and looks are not what matters : D
All the big time collectors, feel free to jump in and laugh at any of us that collect games like this haha I know it probably looks ridiculous to those of you that are into the minty stuff.
I will kick things off with some examples, and feel free to share yours. Don't be shy if you aren't a minty collector!
Here are a couple of games I have with very minor tearing:


The next one is in pretty good shape, but the label is almost missing. Take notice of the new label that someone had applied to it:

And here... here is my crown jewel! NARC... man oh man. Thank you Marshall Palmer, you have helped me achieve a status of awesomeness with your sharpie writing, and stickers and all that. This is my favorite cart in my collection. I'm even going to show the front AND back of this one!

That NARC is classic...I wonder who it belonged to?
I would probably win if I idnt ever upgrade, I had to throw away many working games because of the condition, buy I've never had as much marker as that narc
Don't throw away bad conditioned games, PM me... I'm always looking to downgrade my games to an even crappy conditioned one..

Dude, what are you doing? That's such a waste. You should at least donate it to Goodwill or something, so someone, somewhere can at least get a little money.
I did a google image search and (aside from the Marshall Palmer method for measuring rain drop distribution,) I came up with this guy. http://files.dmusic.com/music/k/a/kashflow//emotions.jpg He looks like he'd be down for some Narc...

I know it seems like a waste, but I would never throw anything that I can't donate or give away or something just by spending another 5 bucks, I mean the games were so filthy that I would've felt bad giving them to somebody, I'd have preferred to just buy a new cart or something instead.
And Pserge, I'll let you know the next time I have them.
^ Nice Mario 3. Is that label made out of post-its?? lol
looks like masking tape to me... funny whatever it is...
My question is what are you doing with Marshall Palmers games hummmm
uh-oh... Maybe I shouldn't have posted this! haha
@NES_Bros_3:
I have absolutely no idea. I may have bought it around here, but I really can't remember.
Tusky! If that is not your regular SMB3, it doesn't count! ; )
How about the worst boxes? These were all MINT BLACK BOXES, but unfortunately they were sprayed with some acrylic irremovable paint, and then the titles of the games that they were gonna store in them were painted on...I thought the were just regular boxes at first, but then looked closely and saw the vague titles of black boxes through the paint.
guess be glad one of the boxes didnt say stadium events

Personally I would never make fun of what somebody collects... we all go for what floats our particular boat. BUT what I find RIDICULOUS are the "FIND OF A LIFETIME I found a loose ducktales for $2!!!!!!!" threads
Some of those finder's keepers threads aren't even the find of the hour!
Great NARC and great black boxes!! Cringeworthy!
guy here who painted a silent service with yellow paint for the NAgehunt, don't remember who it was though.
That was Randy (Tallguy)
